I really liked this! I also tried it with honey mustard (which I usually like better), but the recipe was much better witht he bbq sauce. Very good!

So Yummy! It's even great with whatever sliced meat and cheese you have available! We used sliced pastrami and provolone cheese last time!

This was decent, but nothing special. I order a similar dish at Chili's (Monterey chicken) and was really excited when I saw this recipe, hoping to be able to re-create my restaurant favorite at home. Beyond the obvious difference (Chili's entree contains no ham), it would appear that the two are quite similar. To my dismay, this was nothing like Chili's Monterey chicken. Because I could not find pre-sliced Monterey-Jack cheese, I used Colby-Jack cheese instead (my only change). I regret that I purchased extra-thin sliced cheese tho.... It didn't melt as I wanted it to, so the appearance of my chicken was not what I'd expected. :( Mashed red potatoes with white pepper gravy, a steamed broccoli & carrot medley and garlic toast paired nicely with this (and made me feel like I was eating at the "chain"). It's unfortunate that the sides ended up being the star of our meal. Both my hubs and I agree that when the craving strikes, we'll visit our local hangout for the "real" deal. Thanks anyways, Kellie. :-)

Made this last night, however I didn't have ham or the tomato to garnish. Still turned out great. Was a big hit for both my son and my BF. Will make again for sure!

Simply delicious. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would. I used the garlic powder and italian seasoning "to taste", as directed, and I probably used a lot less than 1 teaspoon of each. I felt that it added a complexity of flavor that you couldn't get anywhere else, though, and I wouldn't ever think of leaving them out. Instead of Monterey Jack cheese, I used mild cheddar, since that's what I had. My husband ate one bite, declared it "card worthy", then proceeded to eat 3 of the 4 breasts by himself. Definitely a compliment. :) Thanks Kellie!

My husband could not stop raving about this! His reaction typically would resulted in my giving this 5 stars, but I made a few changes to the recipe that I felt were necessary to improve it. I used a super-spicy seasoning mix in place of the Italian seasoning (since I just couldn't see how that would work with the BBQ sauce), nixed the pepper, added a little salt, and only used 2 tbs. of BBQ sauce per chicken breast (which was more than enough). I also used smoked mozzerella in place of the Monterey Jack, because that's what I had on hand. Otherwise, though, I made it precisely as written, and my husband is already asking when we're going to be eating the leftovers! I thought it was good as well (and the chicken was very moist!), but nothing phenomenal--that BBQ/meat combo must be a guy-thing! : )

Delicious! The flavors are wonderful together. My hubby said it was very tasty and asked that I make it again. I didn't have monterey jack cheese so I used pepper jack. I liked the spicy cheese with the sweet BBQ sauce. That was the only change I made and I will be making this again!

This was very good chicken. Enjoyed by the entire family, but especially loved by my husband. He commented on how all of the flavors were perfect together and the chicken was very moist. I am sure this one will be made again. Thanks!

This is a great chicken recipe. The ingredients kindof remind me of a chicken cordon blue, just with BBQ sauce. The results were fantastic! I used a sweet Memphis style BBQ sauce that really gave the chicken a nice flavor. Super easy to make and absolutely wonderful!
